" . FOE'' f
ATTENTION is respectfully ealled tomentioned Paint, and the
qualities upon which are based its claims tosuperior adrantages, established by the mostincontrovertible evidence as to fact, as al-
ready fully demonstrated in this and neigh-boring eities bymany'of the largest GasCompanies, Iron Establishments, Iron SafeManufacturers, Ship Builders, Painters, Sugar Refiners, Carriage Manufacturers, Builders, steatnDoat and uaiiroaa uompanies,Roofers, etc. - -
It consists of aeTenty-tw- o parts Oxide ofIron, and twenty eigbt parts Uement liimeStone, in the one hundred pounds. '
Ths Ore from which this Paint is manufactured is from a Tein diseoTered in CarbonCounty, Pa , which is overlaid with hydrauliceement lime stone, through which the watersof ages hare percolated, and which in con- -

It has much mora body than red or whitelead. " It i warranted perfectly water andfire proof, and to withstand a greater heat onmetals, without sealing, than any other paintin use; hence it is unquestionably the
et Coating ever applied on Steam' Pipet and Boilert,
Wlcrt it is pnventhmt men Rat Ld Willnot itand.
It is a perfect cover for ships' bottoms, ofiron or wood; and ail kinds of iron, tin,brick or vood work, and canTasscoverings. "It prevents and arrests the corro-sion of metals, and is not affected by the ac-
tion of aalt, gases,' acids or ammonia. '
it hardens onaer watery as baa been ruiiydemonstrated by its application to gss holdera, by many of the largest Gas companies inthe United States; which companies, havethoroughly tested its properties ' as hereinslaimed, pronounce ia its favor over any oth-er paints in the market, even though sold atdouDiens price.
As a eoating for patterns of iron or wood,when mixed with shellac, it ia much superiorto beeswax, oil. or shellac alone, as has beenproven at the largest foundries in the country.
For patching boilers and making joints, itis aonsidered superior to red lead, or any oth-er .-- -preparation.
. For cleaning metals it takes the place of Icrocus, rouge and emery, being better and is
' . . .cheaper.This Paint requires no more oil than dry
lead or sine, and much less than the urdinary mineral paints. . It is free from any waste,and possesses a spreading and covering

THE CHIEF'S REVENGE,
BY J. M. BISHOP.
Reader, were you ercr in a Highland Hotel or inn? If not, I willdescribe it
The low, heayy eaves, blackenedby the smoke of half a century, i
turf fire blazing in the center, refleeting in the few cans of pewterbung against the wall; heavv stoolsot tne rudest workmanship, formedfrom the mountain ash, and a tablewhose legs of unequal length werepropped dt a morsel of peat, werermy years since, the principal objects. Add to these a pair of superbantlers of the red deer, ornamentingtne wails, ana a rutty fire lock andyou have the scene in which our storyopens.
Before the rude table describedsat two highlanders both noblespecimens of their countrymen,though widely different One talland well made, with curls of chestnut curling abore a forehead whichChantry might copy, his fine featureslit up with the enthusiasm of hishills, wore the Stewart tartan. Asmall richly mounted dagger andpair of pistols hung at his belt, andin his bonnet a gray eagle's featherdenoted him the son of a Highlandchieftain.
His companion varied in form andexpression. An ejie, dark and de-fiant as the mountain eagle, flashedfrom a bold and intelligent ratherthan a handsome countenance; hisswarthy features were surmountedby locks like the raven, and his fig-ure, though denoting great strength,was yet formed with that lightnessand elegance which mountain lifealone ean give. In his cap he wore
tuft of heather bloom, and the longplaid, which crossing his breast andknotted on the shoulder, was ofblack and red) alone the cheek ofthe Campbell's. He seemed someyears older than the other, and ofsomewhat lower rank, thongh not atall inferior in. spirit or bearing.
"I tell ye, Allan," said the elderHighlander, "we'll no seethe auldtimes till tne aula rule comes DomeHer sin sell will rally the clan, andpour down on the lowland churls likethe avalanche from Ben Nevis."
"Hist, Ranald," said the other, "Itell ye mon, now is not the time.The dragoons from Carlisle wouldbe down upon us ere we could makehead. Beside there are other reasons which urge prudence."
"Prudence! " retorted the other,"ye speak like the caukl-bloede- d
Southerner, not like a bonny Stew-art; pluck up mair heart, mon; it's iabut late you ve turned coward: '
And you," said the other, bis finefeatures flashing- with indignation,
speak like a fool, he added, earcastically, "like alow born HighlandCateran:"
"Draw!" saiu the other rising, "aCampbell never brooked an insult"
"Nor a Stewart insolence, repliedthe tall Highlander.
"Sheutlemen, shentlemen," criedthe hostess, running between thecombatants, "ye'll no spill blude in
woman s house help: she screamed, as the dirks flashed high ever herhead; a moment more and the Stew-art fell.
Ranald, lad, forgive me as freelyas I do you," he murmured as thedark Highlander regardless of theiranger, kneeled beside him.
"My Allan, my noblebrotber, lookup, look up once mair. Have I slainye?" he continued, his eyes fixed upon the pale features of his friend.
Uch bone, och hone! where will Igo and die, my generous Allan?" .
He was aroused by the voice ofthe hostess.
Fly, fly," she said, "an' save yer- -
sel' or the clan gathers."Let them come, let them kill me,"
said Campbell; "what is life to are be could finish the sentence
approaching footsteps were heard,and the old woman dragged him from ofthe spot '
Without knowing whither his stepsled him, the wanderer pursued hisflight The voice of his pursuerswas heard at the head of the glenInto which he had dived, when along, low building of stone seemedto invite him to its shelter. Withoutpausing to ask admittance, he entered
large and spacious hall, hung withthe spoils of the chase. A venera-ble' man advanced to 'meet him.
hose half lowland costume bespoke ofman or rank."What make ' vou here young
man?' said the gentler, "and whyenter thus rudelr the dwelling ofanother?"
My life is "ought juttly sought;your dwelling offered its protection.But speak the word and I die here."
1 he protection of a Stewart wasnever sought in vain, young Stranger: -
At that name Randall s dark brewflashed with agony. -
"lay me then, my lord,"-- he cried.and avenge the death of your son." ed,in old man reeled as a atnun- -
derboit hail struek hira; and for a
with a flashing eye and quivering lip;then, as if mastering himself he
murmured, "It is the will of Heavenyoung man. You have stricken thenoblest the bravest son of a nobleclan; but you have asked a chiefsprotection, and on the word, the honor of a Stewart yQ shall have itHere, Ellen," he- - exclaimed as thesounds of pursuit increased. At theword a woman of great beauty madeher appearance. "Hide this stranger," he continued: "his life is sought
we must protect him.While his daughter, for such she
was, le.i the way to a distant apartment Lord Stewart demanded ofthe crowd or class of men without,what they wanted.
"A raise Campbell has slain ourfoster brother your fair haired Allan," was the reply. "We demandvengeance."
"Kinsmen, I knew my loss and willadmit my roe Is now beneath myreoi; put my Knignuy honor is inpledge for his safety," said Stewart.
It was not without difficulty thattne nerce passions of the clan wereallayed; but the noble generosity ofthe rather inspired the. rude moun-taineers with admiration of his char-acter.
After the last retainer had depart-ed, Stewart entered the turret wherehis guest or prisoner was confined."Campbell," he said, "I have sayedyour life; go and carry with you thememory that you have made minedesolate."
With unfeigned humility the proudspirited youth kissed the hand of thevenerable chieftaiu, following himthrough the long corridors to thepostern.
As he passed one apartment thesobs of its inmate struck on hisheart, and with a mental misery toobig for utterance, be found himselfagain free on his native hills.
We now pass over some years, rluring which the self-exile- d Campbellfound a refuge from melancholymemories in the service of the British army in the low country.
Bravest among the brave, he dareddeath in a thousand forms; and whilepromotion crowned every effort, thedark gloom of his brow was Leverlighted by a smile.
But at length the rebellion in themother country breaking out, severalregiments were ordered home, andamong them Campbell.
At last the unfortunate battle ofCulloden settled the fate of many ofthe Jacobite gentry and Highland tochiefs and among' them Stewart ofArdkinglass.
The Castle of Carlisle was crowd-ed with the doomed; for the govern-ment threatened so fiercely, was inno mood to pardon lightly those whohad menaced the state so power-fully.
1; was on the evening of the daypreceding that appointed for the ex-
ecution of the chief above mentioned;and the last rays of sunset as theylingered above the Renland hills,gleamed through the grate of CarlisleCastle that the door of the rudeapartment swung heavily back onits hinges admitting a lady robed inthe deepest black. As she flungback the veil which concealed herfeatures she displayed a countenanceof exquisite beauty, while the death-ly paleness of her cheeks, and eyesrendered dim by weeping, enchantedthe loveliness which sorrow mightnot hide.
"My Ellen, my beloved child, thiskind, yet cruel. Why not spare
the pain of this interview?" said thenoble prisoner, "and yet it is a priv-ilege to leave my last blessing onthy sunny locks," he continued, ashis daughter .answered alone by hersobs. "Nay, my child," he said,"this weakness becomes not a High-land girl. I know the cast I playedfor I have lost. What then? I amnot the child to cry for it. Rather,my Ellen, take my last charge. Thymother s diamonds, of which theycannot deprive thee, shall be thydower. Depart to morrow for Fans.The ladies of the Sacred Heart willreceive thee, for they loved thymother. I had planned otherwise,but Heaven s will be done!"
They were interrupted by the entrance of a stranger, whose dress oftartan, and the star on his breast,betokened him an officer in the renowned 42d Highlanders.
"Will Lord Stewart forgive this intrusion?" said the stranger, "moreforgive him whom he must regard ashis bitterest roe: '
"Colonel Campbell, for such I perceive is your rank. I have longforgiven you; yet me thinks it is ungenerous thus to intrude on my lastmoments' recollections."
"It is even for that purpose I come.On my knees have I begged thy life
the King, as his clemency sparedmine years ago, and your pardonunder the royal seat arrives - to-
night One thing more, my lord;life has been wretched to me throughyears of rising honors. May I devote its remainder to you, and yfilial duty strive to recall a son?"
Tears which only his own fatecould not wring from him, floweddown the face of the aged Stewart.Campbell had not only obtained thelife of tho earl, but also a reversion
